Brian Greenslade (B.A. Hist., Grad. Dip. M.Media)

GreensladeCreative.com, in partnership with Dave, produces some of the sharpest content and events available in Thames Valley, Waikato and Auckland. We strive to bring perfection to everything we do live, digitally and in any media. Having a crack team who enjoy working together is the magic that works.

As a Producer/Director with GreensladeCreative.com I have worked with some amazing people up and down the country. With over 30 years of media and advertising experience I have seen a lot of changes but each time you learn what works and what doesn’t. Working with BBDO, Saatchi’s and New Zealand Film Connection has shown me how big this can go but also how small things can make a big difference. Developing award winning brands like: NZ Tourism, 100% Pure NZ, Whitcoulls, and Bay of Plenty Times took planning and hard work. I plan on doing that for you too.

When I established GreensladeCreative.com as a way to move into those new areas to be explored visually and audibly I knew it was going to be big. We all want to get the best out of what we have invested in and I am sure you will find that we can do that for you. We are based in Auckland and Thames Valley and are always ready to hit the ground running in our Productions by design.

Dave Greenslade (B.A. Soc.)

GreensladeCreative.com, in partnership with Brian, produces some of the sharpest content and events available in Thames Valley, Waikato and Auckland. We strive to bring perfection to everything we do live, digitally and in any media. Having a crack team who enjoy working together brings the magic that works.

As Sound Manager at GreensladeCreative.com I have experienced most live events both as a performer and producer. That experience gives the understanding to create events that work for both the audience and performers. Being involved in NZ’s music and entertainment industry since I was a teen has given me an understanding of what performers need to do well - I love providing that.

Having been a successful business owner in the engineering sector for many years I know what it takes to work with people and make things happen. Performing and teaching music for many years gave me a good ear for what people like to hear. Reputation is everything in rural NZ and my customers keep coming back to me to provide these sound events. I am sure you will too.
